2014 Fiat 500c GQ Edition Revealed at Concorso Italiano
Fiat has unveiled its 2014 500c GQ Edition at the Concorso Italiano, part of the 2013 Pebble Beach weekend of automotive festivities.
The latest convertible model of the Fiat 500 sees a collaboration between the Italian automaker and GQ for another fashionable, limited-production lifestyle model. Available in Nero Puro (black), Argento (silver), Granito Lucente (granite crystal), and Bianco (white), the limited edition cabrio will be heading to Fiat dealerships starting in early 2014.
The GQ edition 500c will be powered by the Italian automaker’s 1.4-liter MultAir Turbo engine with 160 horsepower and 170 lb-ft of torque, and strives to “capture the essence of the GQ man by creating a Cinquecento that reflects an athletic yet style-conscious lifestyle,” according to Fiat.
To give it a unique look, 16-inch split five-spoke wheels adorn each corner finished in Hyper Nero with a Rosso center cap. GQ 500 badging is located on the B-pillar while a cloth-top mounted spoiler extends the roofline while delivering additional downforce.
The cloth top can be retracted at speeds up to 60 mph, revealing an interior that features specially designed seats with Nero leather and Alcantara inserts. “GQ” has been embossed in the seatbacks and the instrument bezel is available color-matched to the exterior with a matte finish.
No pricing for the 2014 Fiat 500c GQ Edition was announced.
